    Take your pick of this great material from NASA.

    At least 50 years on you can see what actually happened! It still gives me hell of a buzz!

    Plans to build Europe's largest observation wheel on the banks of the River Tyne in Newcastle have been given the go ahead.

    Dubbed the "Whey Aye" wheel, the 460ft (140m) structure on Spillers Wharf will be taller than the London Eye.

    <ok>
